Interior extremely dated,vsoft furnishing were dirty, cracks on wall. Ants in the bathroom so keep your toothbrush safe! Toilet not working properly and wasnt always able to flush.

i like to get my refund for one night stay in Galataport hotel because at 1 am the AC stopped working and the front disk came to fix it and after 20 minutes said he will call the responsible person to come and fix it, after afew minutes he came back and said they are not answering their phones and they will fix it tomorrow. The next day we had to leave the hotel for all day and at 5 pm my wife and I came back the front disk said no one came to fix it yet, i asked for another room and he said no room is vacant, i was frustrated at that time and asked i like to talk to the owner and he talk to someone and then he said you have to move to the next door hotel, had no choice so it took me along time to move my belonging, because the next door hotel did not had elevator. We had very bad experience from hotel and their front disk in our stay

Great location

Great location near the Tower. The hotel is on a street with a lot of street construction and the area looks run down but the hotel is refurbished and very nice. The staff were very accommodating and helpful. The economy room is small but adequate for two people. I would definitely stay here again.

When u arrived we were told our hotel room had been flooded it was 2am so we were then told we would have to walk to another hotel in the town. The room was old and smelled like smoke stains on the sheets and floor very dirty. The tv was hanging off the wall there was one socket in the room only!

Razoável

As fotos não condizem com a realidade. Nao que seja ruim, é bem razoável. Não tem água para vender no hotel e não dão água, o colchão é péssimo e o quarto é bem pequeno. A roupa de cama é pequena. Ponto positivo: café da manhã, que é pago e a localização. Ademais, nós não ficaremos neste hotel novamente.
